Titanium 58 Ford......
By kevin - 09/17/2002 10:26:35 AM; IP 209.240.198.60
I did some figuring, and it takes 700 flywheel horses for a car that weighs 3,800# (thats with driver) to achieve 10.20's. That means the heads have to flow 340 CFM @ 28 inches to support that kind of power. Jim Kuntz needs to talk to your dad. For a 3,200# total to do it takes 600 horses, and that will require 290 cfm @ 28 inches. This is what a regular poster runs with his Fairmont. For another example, the Hemi heads, fully race modified, and with 5/16th's stem valves flowed 365 cfm, better than my Hi-Riser 427 heads by a significant amount. Most ported C-J heads are in the 275 range. The 240 rod is 6.795" long which is doable, but I have seen them break. I believe it is not as short a stroke as you do, since the journal size must be reduced .315 to get to 2.123 diameter (I believe thats what the truck 240 journals were, from memory) throw size.
This thread, so far...
